1. Which data fit together in a way that tells a compelling, novel scientific story.

2. Its worth putting a lot of data together to create a big paper that has a real chance of publication in a high-impact journal.

3. High impact, high profile papers enhance grant success and promotion.

Hatred, ignorance, fear, greed, and discrimination are viruses, magnified by suffering, carried in buckets, spilled onto the world.

We cannot eliminate them by actions that magnify hatred, ignorance, fear, greed, discrimination and suffering - only by actions that relieve them.

USAIDโ€™s Emergency Food Security Program spent $4 billion in FY2022 to feed 114 million people in 55 countries. We just blew that much money in four days of this war.

Right now Trump is spending billions of dollars for massive military force against Iran... without a clear congressional mandate or broad public backing.

Meanwhile we're being told we โ€œdonโ€™t have enoughโ€ for affordable care, living wages, or public services.

Biological Laboratory | LEGOยฎ Ideas This is a two-floor realistic Biological Laboratory building. In this design, I try to tell stories about biologists, introduce biology concepts to general publโ€ฆ

I just made an account and voted for this biology laboratory made of LEGO to "promote biological research and inspire more people into the world of biology". They need 10K votes. Reposting and/or voting below would be helpful. ๐Ÿค—

As kids, all of us in the neighborhood spent *every* summer morning doing exactly this. It was a blast, and one of my favorite childhood memories. We used cheap plastic Flexible Flier sleds that went about a thousand miles an hour. I had a good childhoodโ€ฆ

It makes good business sense too.

Those business districts that removed parking for cars and replaced it with more pedestrian and bicycle friendly spaces, saw business *increase*.

These initiatives are all over the place, and distract from addressing numerous urgent needs.

This was the 2023 Guisachan Gathering at Guisachan Estate in Scotland, the birthplace of the Golden Retriever. 488 absolute angels came back to celebrate, with pure joy, zero drama, and nonstop zoomies. Heart full, every single one a very good dog.

My thoughts on Stephen A Smith potentially running for president are:

Could we please stop fucking electing celebrities and get back to the business of running the country with boring people who just want to do a good job.

Was asked how to best recruit rotation PhD students that will ultimately join - meetings pre decision to rotate are ๐Ÿ”‘, what your lab is best equipped to teach-support in terms of research-training [also what you are willing to support that your lab doesn't do] - also what you can't support. 1/2

This is a real-time disaster in motion. The people responsible for the Colorado river watershed need to get their shit together. Immediately. If the people in place currently arenโ€™t up to job, replace them with people who can. Also, this problem is not unique to the Colorado riverโ€ฆ
